Photoshop Shotgun

So, at school today, I was doing some co-op doodling with a classmate when I realized what an awesome idea it would be for an online game. Basically, someone takes a picture from the internet and everyone else adds stuff to it until it is unrecognizable, an abomination, pure awesome, or a combination thereof.

I decided not to put it into Forum Games because a) it isn't really competitive... it's about as much a game as a colouring book is, and b) it fits the term "Off Topic" to the letter.

Somebody informed me that there was a game similar to this some time ago, but that it failed. However, it's been a while since then (new topic time) and hopefully this one will turn out better.

Anyway, RULES.

1. You must take the picture made by the person posting before you. That way you truly "add" to it, rather than just changing it.

2. Keep it G-rated. No pornography, no cursing, no suggestive situations. Mild violence or suggested violence to come is okay.

3. You are allowed (encouraged, in fact) to post before you create the picture to save a spot. This avoids confusion. Simply edit the post you've already made (saying "New picture in progress" or something similar) with the picture included. If a post has been left like this for over an hour, feel free to skip over them because they probably forgot.

4. Don't forget. It isn't nice.

5. Put the picture in <spoiler2]</spoiler2] tags (replacing "<" with "[") to ensure that the post does not take up too much space.

And begin!

We had one of these it was called photoshop tennis and it was fun and therefore it's being moved into Forum Games.

Not all forum games are competitive... like, we have spam games every once in a while in here, like the Rock Paper Scissors Explosives Leprechaun thread.

Adding text is lame. Anyone can do that. Plus, it eats up valuable real estate for proper photo manipulation. I suggest that text is not allowed.

1) Arlia Janet, you kinda forgot most of the rules. Thumbnails is actually a better idea, but I don't know how to do that. More importantly, however, you were ninja'd because you forgot the placeholder post.

Since you put more work into yours (and snowboarding + dinosaurs = awesome), we'll go from there, but in the future, failure to comply will result in your work being wasted.

2) From now on text is not allowed, that sounds pretty good.
